Capital Projects Parks Hearing

Posted by Katalina Aguilar13sc on

As chair of the Council’s Committee on Parks and Recreation, I have heard concerns raised about the capital budget process for projects overseen by the Parks Department (DPR), including cost overruns and frustration with the length of time it takes the department to complete capital projects that have already received funding.

To examine these issues and to provide oversight on the entire capital process, the Parks Committee will hold an oversight hearing on Thursday, January 19th at 1pm at 250 Broadway in the 16th floor Committee Room.

While we will be hearing from the Parks Department and a number of advocates, we also want to hear your stories about stalled parks projects in your neighborhood. If you would like to submit testimony, please RSVP below.
